Milford

Milford is a city near the Rescue Bot Training Center. Unlike Griffin Rock, the citizens of Milford don't know that there are giant transforming alien robots, so the Rescue Bot recruits have to maintain their cover as vehicles at all times. The center's holographic training simulator can also simulate Milford, so the eager recruits can practice performing rescues without that being a problem.

The city is big into planting trees on top of their buildings.
